New and imp warlock build.

[V'rass]

Ok as i play each successive warlock i am getting better at building them. I think i now have a good build in mind. First warlock was too weak in hp and ac. Wore no armor and had no ability to fight melee. Hp was low too. My new version will have at minimum 6 hp and at most 9. It will wear medium armor which will give it a very high ac. Finally, it will be able to melee if for some reason its powers are not enough or are disabled. Will pump charisma as high as it can go for max invocation dcs and will prob stock up on epic EBs to boost blast damage up to at least 15d6 and preferably 20d6. I should be nearly invincible with this build once i reach high lv. By 30... lol i will be as a god.

Tip #1: DC locks do not do well on BG; everything saves in epics (just about)
Tip #2: Blast locks are your best bet; 20 dex, max con, 14 int for skills
Tip#3: Don't multi-class unless you are ok with not getting Eldridge Master at 21 (only exception to this is daggerspell lock)
Tip#4: Don't need medium armor, switch that for shield proficiency. Mith chain shirt with +4 bracers will do you fine, and there is a +3 light shield with -05% SF called Frostmaiden's Bane

Using these tips, you should be able to get your lock to 48-50 AC (more with wands), 450 hp+, 18D6 blast with eldridge master is good; more is better, obviously.

Note on epic feats: Many are tempted to get epic feats. Resist that temptation. You need to put out damage and with 18D6 you can do 70-100 blasts, more with crits. If you -have- to have epic spells, limit to one. My suggestion: Gate (doesn't require a save)

I'm not so sure about that. My experiences with DC warlocks have been pretty pleasant, I still did good damage, and I was able to stunlock with a fair few mobs. Also, divine shield AC <3 (you can reach into the 60s with good gear and divine shield)

Tip#3: Don't multi-class unless you are ok with not getting Eldridge Master at 21 (only exception to this is daggerspell lock)

Not getting Eldrich Master at 21 isn't a horrible prospect mind you, if you are reasonably patient. Leveling isn't terrible, and you can get some good benefits out of shadowdancer and/or hellfire warlock multiclassing (or something more exotic for flavor, like bard 3/stormsinger 10, with warlock progression).

Don't forget vampiric feast! Oh, that yummy yummy vampiric feast. Even if they save, its still a great benefit. Epic Gate is kinda crummy. Good for RP in DM events, but, the summon is meh at best.
